A pro-Palestinian gang has created a New Year's nightmare as they blocked JFK airport and surrounding roads, leaving travelers in a gridlock.
The protest was organized by the pro-Palestinian group WOL, which ordered participants to flood JFK Terminal 4 on Monday.
Only passengers with boarding passes and employees with valid identification may enter the JFK Air Train at Jamacia Station.
Cars can be seen driving on the highway to the airport as protesters shout: “NYD KKK, IDF, you are all the same.”
Traffic is blocked near the airport leading up to the passenger terminals near I-678 South and Exit C.

“If anyone is flying out of JFK Airport today, make sure you travel to the airport in advance. There are planned protests today that will cause delays. We don't want anyone to miss their flight! Safe travels and a Happy New Year,” the head of the NYPD Transportation Division said in a post on X.
